Dr. Michael P. Ryan began his journey in dentistry after completing his undergraduate studies at Marquette University. He earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery from the University of Illinois Chicago College of Dentistry in 1991. Following graduation, he joined his father, Dr. Michael J. Ryan, in practice, cultivating a deep passion for dentistry and an unwavering commitment to his patients’ health.
Over the years, Dr. Ryan has continuously advanced his skills through education and training. His dedication to learning has led him to prestigious institutions, including the Atlanta Center for Restorative Dentistry and the Misch Implant Institute, where he completed both surgical and prosthetic courses. His rigorous implantology training at the Misch Resnik Institute from 2019 to 2020 culminated in over 300 hours of study, where he earned a Diplomate of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists, the highest credential in oral implantology. As a CEREC mentor since 2016 and an Invisalign-certified practitioner for over two decades, Dr. Ryan remains at the forefront of dental technology, ensuring the highest quality of care for his patients.
Dr. Ryan is also actively involved in several dental associations, including the American Dental Association, the Academy of General Dentistry, the Illinois Dental Association, the Florida Dental Association, the West Coast District Dental Association, and the Sarasota County Dental Association, demonstrating his commitment to professional development and excellence in patient care.
On a personal note, Dr. Ryan has been happily married to his childhood classmate, Elizabeth, for close to 30 years. Together, they have raised seven children, several of whom have also pursued careers in dentistry, making the Ryans a true family practice. Dr. Collin S. Ryan joined Gulf Gate Dental after graduating from Midwestern University School of Dentistry in May 2023, fulfilling his father’s dream of practicing alongside his children. Additionally, the Ryan family includes a daughter who graduated from the dental hygiene program at Ohio State University and currently works as a dental hygienist, another son who is currently in dental school at Marquette University, and a second daughter studying dental hygiene at Ohio State University. Outside of work, Dr. Ryan cherishes his time with his four adorable grandchildren, who bring even more joy to his already close-knit family.
Gulf Gate Dental is not just a place for dental care; it is a testament to the Ryan family’s commitment to service, innovation, and community. With a legacy that spans generations, Dr. Michael P.
